Would it be recommend to use plugs with no resistance for spark plugs on a mc-racing motor to get hotter sparks? Or doesn`t a standard plug with 5k Ohm...

Hans, The intent of the resistor plugs was to limit radio interference from early ignition systems. This was later used to limit RF problems with the new ...
Michael, Is this on a conventional ignition system? I mean conventional in the sense that there's no semiconductors involved. As far as I can recall the...

Michael, My understanding of electronics is perhaps a little better than yours so I may be able to add some useful comment. You wrote…” So I'm wondering if...
Hi David, The Rita isn't a CDI system - more just a conventional electronic trigger type of ignition that uses regular coils and plugs. I think I've got...

I'll get right to the point - are they really needed? Let's say I have absolutely no qualms with a noisy engine, that for whatever my reasons, decibels make no...
I'm far from a definitive source, but I'd guess that as long as the exhaust system was designed accordingly, a lack of end-cans wouldn't hurt things. Speaking...
